The non-linearity of the climate system may lead to rapid climate change... Some such abrupt events may be imaginable, such as a dramatic reorganization of the thermohaline circulation, rapid deglaciation, or massive melting of permafrost leading to fast changes in the carbon cycle. Others may be truly unexpected, as a consequence of a strong, rapidly changing, forcing of a non-linear system. 1, record 1, English, - rapid%20climate%20change

La non-linéarité du système climatique peut conduire à des changements climatiques rapides [...] On peut imaginer certains de ces phénomènes abrupts, par exemple une réorganisation fondamentale de la circulation thermohaline, une déglaciation rapide, ou une fonte massive du pergélisol entraînant des changements rapides du cycle du carbone. D'autres peuvent être véritablement inattendus, et résulter du forçage puissant, à évolution rapide, d'un système non linéaire. 1, record 1, French, - changement%20climatique%20rapide

The biodynamic compost and spray preparations created out of natural and organic substances are used in minute doses to enhance soil life, plant growth and quality and animal health. They act as a kind of "bioregulator", forcing the self regulation of biological systems, e. g. the farm's whole biological cycle. 1, record 2, English, - bioregulator

Oxygen is a major biological regulator. In Rhizobia living symbiotically with legumes, a reduction in oxygen is the primary trigger of nitrogen fixation. In mammals, oxygen regulates blood flow to the brain, red blood cell production, and many other critical processes. 2, record 2, English, - bioregulator

The pot is a small-bore plunger cylinder without a torpedo. The two cylinders are connected by a valve. When the valve is open, the melting or plasticizing cylinder pushes the material into the nozzle end of the pot, forcing the plunger back. When the plunger moves back an experimentally predetermined distance, the filling stops and the valve is closed, because the backward motion of the plunger actuates a limit switch. At the appropriate time in the cycle the material is injected into the mold from the second cylinder, the so-called shooting cylinder or pot. 2, record 3, English, - injection%20cylinder

Reciprocating screw systems. In a reciprocating(in-line) screw, the material is fed from the hopper, plasticized in the screw, and forced past a one-way valve at the injection end of the screw. The material accumulates in front of the screw, forcing back the screw, its drive and motor, and the pistons of the two hydraulic injection cylinders.... When the screw reaches a certain position, it contacts a limit switch that stops the rotation. When the cycle is ready to inject, two hydraulic injection cylinders, one on each side of the carriage, move the screw assembly forward and use the screw as an injection ram. 1, record 5, English, - reciprocating%20screw%20system

When the valve is open, the melting or plasticizing cylinder pushes the material into the nozzle end of the pot, forcing the plunger back. When the plunger moves back an experimentally predetermined distance, the filling stops and the valve is closed, because the backward motion of the plunger actuates a limit switch. At the appropriate time in the cycle the material is injected into the mold from the second cylinder, the so-called shooting cylinder or pot. This method of operation gives much better mixing of the plastic, more even temperature distribution, and better control of speed, pressure, and the amount of material. This type machine is called a preplasticizing machine. 2, record 6, English, - preplasticizing%20press

Normally, a blow-molded part is cooled externally by the mold cavity, forcing heat to travel through the entire wall thickness. With the poor thermal conductivity of plastic resins, molding cycle times of heavy parts can be considerable. Internal cooling systems are designed to speed the mold cooling time, thus reducing costs by removing some of this heat from the inside. Several systems have been developed that incorporate three basic approaches : liquified gas, super-cold air with water vapor, and air exchange methods. 1, record 7, English, - internal%20cooling%20system

Refroidissement interne des corps creux. Les corps creux à parois minces (bouteilles) ne posent pas de problèmes particuliers et, dans une certaine mesure, les temps de refroidissement sont proportionnels aux épaisseurs. Par contre, lorsque le corps creux comporte des épaisseurs supérieures à 1,5 ou 2 mm, le transfert thermique dans l'épaisseur de la paroi constitue l'obstacle majeur au phénomène de refroidissement, compte tenu surtout des faibles conductivités thermiques des matières thermoplastiques. Le temps de refroidissement devient pratiquement proportionnel au carré de l'épaisseur, c'est pourquoi on a songé à compléter le refroidissement par contact avec l'empreinte par un refroidissement interne selon les différents procédés décrits ci-après. a) Renouvellement de l'air de soufflage [...] b) Balayage au dioxyde de carbone [...] c) Procédé ISC (Internal Surface Cooling) [...] d) Procédé ALEX [...] 2, record 7, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20de%20refroidissement%20interne
